Benefits
Forearm-stand, with or without the hollowback in the picture, is fantastic for strengthening and opening the shoulders and upper back, as well as improving balance and coordination, and overcoming the fear that is sometimes associated with our inversion practice.
Common Mistakes
The entry to the posture is most commonly from your dolphin pose, but people tend to rush ahead and start hopping up straightaway. Remember to walk the feet in towards the hands as much as you can first so the hips become stacked a little more; that way your hips don’t have to take you as far to find the balance point. The other common mistake is the gaze. To drop the head and look back can be trickier for finding balance; if you are newer to the pose try keeping your eye line around your thumbs.
